Red Giant
I went to Sequoia National Park for a short short short camping trip, and saw GIANT GIANT GIANT trees like this one. General Sherman Tree is the largest living tree (by volume) in the world. As a fellow tourist put it: "Just imagine, when Julius Caesar was fighting in Europe and Egypt, little did he know this tree has been growing here in US, and out lasted him and his Roman Empire till now."
